Hi Cuties, When I went to quilt my last quilt my quilting machine was so dusty. You could run your finger on just about any spot & it would ball up😳didn’t need to do a white glove test😉😂 When I cleaned furniture never thought to wipe machine.
Because it stays here by our unused ‘garage’ door I wanted something kinda nice looking and also kind match furniture.
But now I’m thinking 🤔 it’s kinda plain- maybe I should emb something? What you think?
I thought about the name of machine, it has a crown on top of the name, but I’d have to do 3 hooping and try to keep it straight, even.
Also, my quilting is kinda puffy. Can I emb wording on top or do I need to make a patch?
I did make a design of the name, actually 3 to go together. It would measure 12 in wide and about 4 inch tall. If I made a patch I would have to try to do a satin stitch all around with my regular machine.🙄 my hoop is only 5x7.
First picture is side view by light.
Second- front of machine
Third side by motor and thread guide stand( pity is doesn’t lower like my server thread guide, because it pokes up the cover)
Fourth is machine showing name- 3 designs I made is similar although not exact crown or font.
A friend suggested appliquéing leaves... any of you want to share your thoughts?
If you can print out designs do what you think you might like on it and pin it on and see what you think.
I watched a you tube video, Sew Very Easy's 'How to make your own custom sewing machine cover'. I just had to find a cardboard big enough for my side. I had a box I took apart. You are right about the look. Even though it's the same size cover on both ends, one end has the light and head of machine while the other end has the motor, hand wheel of machine and tall, upside down L shape, thread stand guide.
I thought of sewing needs, eg. pins, needles, tape measure, scissors, unpickers, etc. etc. Either way whatever you do will be wonderful, I am sure. Love Chris
